Rear Camera (Parkview Rear Backup Camera) - Jeep COMPASS Owner's Handbook Manual

299) If the windscreen glass must be
replaced due to scratches, chipping or
breakage, contact exclusively a Jeep
Dealership. Do not replace the windscreen
on your own, risk of malfunction! It is
advisable to replace the windscreen if it is
damaged in the area of the camera.
300) Driving the car on urban routes
could significantly change the sensitivity
of the system, due to the limited and/or
lack of vertical and horizontal signs and
variable traffic conditions. Therefore, it is
recommended not to use Highway Assist
system when driving in city streets.
301) Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel (e.g. steering wheel
covers of any type or material) which
could interfere with the capacitive hand
detection sensor on the steering wheel.

(PARKVIEW REAR
BACKUP CAMERA)
(where provided)
Every time reverse is engaged, the
display shows the area around the car, as
seen by the rear camera.
The images are shown on the display
together with a warning message. The
warning disappears after five seconds.
The camera is located on the liftgate.
NOTE The ParkView reversing camera
has programmable operation modes
using the Uconnect™ system. Refer
to the "Settings" chapter in the
"Multimedia" section for further
information.
When the gear lever is moved from the
reverse position (with camera delay
deactivated), the rear camera mode is
exited and the previous screen will be
displayed again. When the transmission
is put into reverse, with the camera
delay activated, the camera image will
continue to be displayed for up to 10
seconds after reverse gear is disengaged,
unless the speed exceeds 13 km/h, the
automatic transmission is in P (Park),
the manual transmission is in neutral
or the ignition device is in the STOP
position.
NOTE With the camera delay activated,
the camera image can be deactivated via
the "X" button on the touchscreen when
the gear lever is moved from the reverse
position.
If activated, the grid is positioned on
the image to highlight the width of the
car and the expected reversing path
in accordance with the steering wheel
position. A superimposed central broken
line indicates the centre of the car to
facilitate parking manoeuvres or tow
hook alignment.
The various coloured areas indicate the
distance from the rear of the car.
The table below shows the approximate
distances for each area:
